Description
A Little Hatred - Joe Abercrombie
A Little Hatred by Joe Abercrombie is the first book in The Age of Madness trilogy, returning to the world of The First Law as a new generation faces war, political upheaval and the beginnings of an industrial revolution.
In the North, Leo dan Brock seeks glory on the battlefield while Rikke struggles with the mysterious power of the Long Eye. Elsewhere, Prince Orso faces the burdens of royalty and Savine dan Glokta pursues wealth and influence in a rapidly changing world.
Factories rise, banks gain power and social unrest spreads through the cities as the old order begins to fracture. Against this backdrop, ambition, violence, politics and magic collide.
Darkly funny, brutal and character-driven, A Little Hatred is an epic fantasy of revolution, power and change, ideal for readers of morally complex fantasy and large-scale political storytelling.
